Chapter 0076 Reunion(1/2)
Chapter 76 Reunion
The stage venue is the form of a ring, with burning braziers with a very modern stage art on both sides, giving people a boisterous and relaxed atmosphere.
Several producers are singers specially invited by the program team who have rap skills and have become famous, and have a certain prestige in the Chinese music scene.
They sat on the seat directly in front of them.
Yang Zhi walked onto the ring slowly, and a producer said, "Please introduce yourself."
"I'm Cae, and April, my band is called August, and my friends and I are participating in a team competition."
"You and your friends?" asked a female producer curiously: "But I only see you now, are your friends invisible?"
Her humorous and playful words made the audience burst into laughter, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
Yang Zhi didn't care, and smiled, following the host's words: "Yes, they are invisible. They have been hiding by my side all these years. Whether I was practicing alone in the classroom or fighting with others on the ring, I could feel them all the time..."
"It sounds a bit cunning. Is the indoor air conditioner too low?" The producer's humor caused laughter to burst into tears again.
Yang Zhi didn't smile, as if he was talking about something very serious: "Because they have grown up."
"They grew up?" The producer didn't understand, so: "How to say it."
Yang Zhi smiled faintly: "Someone once told me that he was working hard to grow up, but the more he grew up, the more things he needed to give up, the life he yearned for, the fanatical and childish love, and also the dream."
"Because adults do not have the right to continue dreaming."
Her tone was relaxed and she smiled, but the audience no longer laughed.
Yang Zhi's words made them fall into deep thought. Perhaps everyone has given up something more or less during the process of growing up. Yang Zhi's words touched the deepest things in their hearts.
Yang Zhi held the microphone, moved his eyes down, and restrained all the light in his eyes: "This is my rap adapted from the melody of "The Original Intention". I picked up the dream they once abandoned, and now I want to return it to them."
The light gradually dimmed, and she was trapped into the darkness. She heard the beautiful melody in her ears. Although she was already very familiar, Yang Zhi's eyes still turned slightly red.
This is the song they wrote for her, and now she wants to return their dreams.
The whole remix process of the song is completed independently by Yang Zhi, whether it is the beat, flow part, or even the verse main song part, it is impeccable. Yang Zhi wrote the past experiences into concise and rhyme lyrics, bringing the audience and producers on the scene into that period of youth.
It is precisely the joy and pain in the years of growth that can make people grow up.
The rappers on the scene couldn't help but stand up, applauding and cheering Yang Zhi from the bottom of their hearts.
Two producers also pressed the pass button, but only one producer did not press the pass from beginning to end.
In the competition system of the program, all three people must press the pass before the contestants can pass the qualifiers, but the producer has not pressed the button until the singing ends.
The musical melody slowly left the stage, and the rappers and audiences on the scene were blown up. At the level of Cae, there was no way to pass this show. What else can I do with this show? Several contestants who were not as strong as Cae passed before.
The rappers were indignant, and Yang Zhi didn't seem to be very excited. From beginning to end, she finished singing the song in her best condition, breathing a little rapid, her chest slightly undulating, looking at the producer.
"Your singing is impeccable, but the reason why I didn't let you pass is because it was not in line with the competition system. You signed up for the team and participated in the competition in the name of the team. But now you are the only one, and you can't fight alone in the name of August." The producer shook his head and said righteously: "The team has the requirements of the team and the standards of pass. Sorry, you can't meet the requirements of the team, and I can't let you pass."
The rappers on the scene were all exploded.
"What's the weird reason?"
"As long as you sing well, you need some team requirements. And even if the team signs up, there is not only one person in the final championship."
"Isn't it okay to change to a personal game now?"
"Cae has a brain problem, so what team should he apply for!"
Because if multiple people from the same band label participate in the competition, then in order to be quick and efficient, the team will sing together. When Yang Zhi signed up a few days ago, he signed up for the team competition, hoping that they could change their minds.
Yang Zhi looked at the producer's eyes. She knew that he had always been strict, and what he said was reasonable. Indeed, the requirements for the team and individual participation were different. It was not that she could just show her own part on the stage. The team needed to take into account everyone in the team and pass it.
"If you want to modify it to a personal competition now, I can immediately press the pass for you. Give up August and participate in the competition in Cae."
The rappers in the background looked at her urgently, hoping that she could change her mind. Yang Zhi didn't even hesitate and shook his head.
The producer looked into her eyes and said, "Your buddies, since they have given up on hip-hop, why should you stick with it?"
"They didn't give up, they just..."
Yang Zhi stopped talking, she didn't know what to say.
The calm producer continued: "Since others have grown up and have their own careers, you don't need to stay where they are for them, but should look at them for a longer period of time. You are April and Cae. There are few musicians who can achieve the dual burden of pop and hip-hop. Your road ahead is a road. Do you really want to give up all this for August that has long disappeared?"
Yang Zhi lowered his eyes, as if thinking. The producer was holding the key press in his hand, and with just one word of her, he could press the pass button.
After a moment of silence, Yang Zhi raised his head, and his deep and dark eyes were unprecedentedly firm.
"This song is called "The Original Intention", here is my answer."
After she finished speaking, the rappers in the waiting room stood up and applauded her. Even though she couldn't hear it at the front desk, they still showed from the bottom of their hearts.
However, at this moment, the director suddenly came on stage and approached the producer's ear and whispered a few words.
After the director went down, the producer looked at Yang Zhiqian and smiled and said, "It seems that your friends have not disappointed you."
Before Yang Zhi could react, several people walked up the ring passage behind him.
Shi Xu, Pei Qing and Shen Xingwei.
Her heartbeat was about to stop.
Shi Yu was wearing a small suspender and a loose long coat, with ten-centimeter pointed high heels outlined her figure, while Shen Xingwei was wearing a dark shirt from ordinary teachers, looking very regular, while Pei Qing was even more exaggerated. He had not even had time to take off his white coat for biotechnology.
In order to catch up with this game, they rushed over at a glance and called the directors of the program team all the way, and rushed to the stage without even changing their clothes.
Of course, such operations should not be allowed, but the program team happily agreed to let them on stage in order to make the recording effect dramatic.
Yang Zhi was stunned for a long time: "Why are you all here..."
Shen Xingwei pointed to the direction leading to the ring and said with a smile: "It's not just us."
Following the direction he pointed, a familiar figure of a man slowly walked into the dim channel. The spotlight spread across his body bit by bit. He seemed to have just come out of the company. While walking, he took off his black suit and threw it on the side. The movement made the audience in front of the screen look bloody.
Without the arrogant and domineering he was in his youth, he now has a bit of mature and cold elite temperament, and when he appears, he is separated from the rappers around him, which is very "not hip-hop".
Not only Kou Xiang, but also Shen Xingwei, Shi Xu and Pei Qing, their current dress is very "not hip-hop" and does not look like they should be playing hip-hop.
The rappers in the audience whispered and talked.
"Who are they? Do you know them?"
"The famous Caesar in the middle, don't say you don't know him!"
"I really don't know you, are you very famous?"
"I left the circle a few years ago. Let me tell you this. If he had not retired back then, he would definitely be a guy who was qualified to sit in the producer seat now."
"Really or not?"...
At this moment, Yang Zhi had completely lost the ability to think, his mind was empty and his feet were light.
She pinched herself hard, sure that she wasn't really dreaming. One day, in her lifetime, there would be this day. August reunited and she could still stand on the same stage with them.
Kou Xiang walked straight towards Yang Zhi, without saying anything, and pulled her into his arms, his movements were tough and domineering, which made everyone scream.
A hug that almost exhausted all her strength, she could feel the trembling of his muscles on his body. His hand pressed the back of her head and pressed her head tightly against his chest.
She heard his heart beating vividly.
Yang Zhi admitted that he was not strong enough. The moment he was pulled into his arms, her tears gushed out. No one could understand her excitement. Over the past three years, hundreds of days and nights, he had thought of giving up. But she was like this, persevering for another minute, and persevering for another minute...
So she persisted until now.
"You're here." Her voice was unstable.
"Never leave again."
His voice was as strong as his hug.
The two hugged each other for a long time before Yang Zhi remembered that she was still recording the show. She reluctantly pushed Kou Xiang away, took a deep breath to keep herself calm.
Kou Xiang looked at the producer directly opposite him. His friends are standing behind him now. Even though he has been out of the circle for many years, he still has the courage to stand here and have the confidence.
He is the light and faith that everyone is oriented to, and the heart wants.
He is Caesar.
"Caesar, you've never heard from me for so many years, and you're back on this stage." The producer seemed to know him, too: "So what's going on now, do you want to continue this game?"
"yes."
Kou Xiang looked at the key press in his hand: "Since it is a team competition system, we are ready to compete with the team qualification to win the championship."
The producer had a faint smile on his lips: "Caesar, you have retired for so many years, can you still sing?"
“Try it.”
"You don't need to sing the prepared songs. Can you still be freestyle now?"
Kou Xiang's jaw slightly raised: "You'll listen for a few hours."
As soon as this statement was spoken, the rappers on the scene were all high and were very excited by his arrogant words.
"Damn, I'm worthy of being Caesar. Look at him dressing like a man now, he's still as arrogant as before."
"Arrogant? You haven't seen the freestyle for several hours, have you seen it? I've seen it. I still keep the video of Caesar's game, precious historical materials!"
"Damn it! So awesome!"
